In case your invoice has not been paid yet, this can have multiple reasons, which may include:
- We have not received your invoice yet;
- We have received your invoice, but there is a discrepancy so it needs to be manually checked by the Accounts Payable (AP) team;
- The payment terms are not due yet.
Our AP team is continuously reviewing invoice discrepancies to ensure invoices can be paid correctly and as soon as possible. After our review you will be notified via e-mail with the status of your invoice, or you can find the status of your invoice in Sunweb Group’s Supplier Portal.
In case a pre-payment/guaranteed payment has not been paid timely, this is typically due to the payment scheme (resulting from the contract) which was not validated in time internally to ensure that our payment run follows the agreed payment schedule. In this case, please notify your contact person so our team can adjust the payment scheme accordingly to ensure that future payment runs will be executed effectively.
If your e-mail address is known to us, credit invoice(s) are automatically sent to you after the credit invoice(s) have been created. In case you are connected to the Supplier Portal, you can also find credit invoice(s) in your account.
In this situation, there is a difference between your invoice amount and the price of Sunweb Group. The corresponding credit invoice clarifies the difference between your calculation and Sunweb Group’s calculation.
Please contact the AP team at AP@sunwebgroup.com by replying to the deduction e-mail and include your questions or remarks on the deduction.
